Princeton is really small and it's seems like most restaurants close at like 8-9pm but the chevron gas station is 24hrs if you need a snacky. There's an A+W, DQ, and Subway for fast food. Lots of off-road adventures, hiking and fishing to be had if you're into that. The "Whipsaw" is the best serious 4x4 trail. You could check out Coalmont and the ghost town "granite city" and Tullameen. You can drive to Summerland on a dirt road too

Plenty of shopping, eating places, grocery store etc. in Princeton. At a meeting of major highways it's a great stop-off place and easy to get around. The people are friendly and helpful and take pride in their town - it's clean, well kept. There's some interesting shops eg one that sells an amazing selection of rocks and minerals, also excellent coffee shops.

The city museum was a great find. I had no idea that petrified wood is found in the area and there are pictographs existing of the early peoples. I have seen this in the US-Arizona/New Mexico,etc, but never tought they existed here. also other great displays of the area.

Princeton is a great location for a low-key getaway from Vancouver. It has a nice dry environment with beautiful ponderosa pines and grasslands. The small downtown area has some cute shops. We sat on the patio of a great cafe called Thomasina's and enjoyed craft beer. We had dinner at the Copper Pit - excellent smoked meat. We also saw several deer.

Really enjoyed the museum. very well presented. Enjoyed the coffee at Frannies coffee shop. down a side street so not noticed right away. liked looking at their brass statues , animals etc/. located throughout the town.

Unfortunately Princeton is under a boil water advisory so it was kind of annoying to have to bring our own bottled water into the room- none was provided. Otherwise the Ace Hotel was well situated and our drive to Princeton through amazing scenery made it worthwhile. The Creek Cafe served amazing Greek food- with a patio!
